Why Planned Parenthood Can’t Donate Tissue Harvested From Babies

If you haven’t watched the damning videos of Planned Parenthood officials discussing fetal tissue donation (or, in plain language, exchanging aborted babies’ body parts for money), you should watch them now before you read further.

The first alarming question is whether Planned Parenthood illegally sells aborted fetuses’ organs and tissue. This is what Planned Parenthood and its defenders have repeatedly focused on, insisting that they are compliant with all laws.

But it is what precedes that “fetal tissue donation” that needs attention. Specifically, does Planned Parenthood regularly flout the federal ban on partial-birth abortion using loopholes? How do they get away with this? Do their patients—the women who apparently choose to donate the “fetal tissue”—know what’s going on in explicit terms?

Federal law prohibits partial-birth abortion, a gruesome procedure in which an unborn baby is intentionally turned to the breech position to ensure that delivery of the body happens before delivery of the head. Once the baby’s head is stuck in the birth canal, the abortionist punctures the skull, evacuates the contents, and the baby is dead.

There’s a good reason this practice is banned—it’s barbaric. Many Americans may not know that the term “partial-birth abortion” is not a medical one but a legal one. And, according to Planned Parenthood doctor Deborah Nucatola, some abortion providers don’t consider it with any seriousness. In her own words, “It’s not a medical term, it doesn’t exist in reality.” What? Why It’s Good to Give Babies a Heart Attack

The thing with the so-called "fetal tissue" is the same with organs.

Why do hospitals keep brain dead patients on life support machines when they have been designated as "organ donors" so that those organs haven't begun the process of dying, deteriorating.

Dead tissue, is dead tissue. Live tissue has a value that dead tissue doesn't.

My science classes were long ago and I didn't go into any medical field but I seem to remember learning about what happens when a person dies, be it through advanced age, heart attack, stroke, accident or other.

It's the same with humans and other animals, we eat live meat (killed to extract the meat) but never eat anything that has died naturally for food and we also look at those that do eat the dead by natural causes as "cartons, i.e. vultures and hyenas as unsavory.

I’m reading on Facebook, some of the comments from pro life groups and a few protestant churches and catholic pages and in EVERYONE of those pages or thread postings where they make a statement condemning Planned Parenthood, there are trolls on that site promoting abortion and defending PP.

Sometimes they read as if Satan himself were writing those comments. I don’t know if these are paid trolls or they do it out of the evil in their hearts. It just blows me away to see that every single posting that comes out against PP, the trolls are there to do damage control.

This is where PP gets sued into oblivion. Imagine the size of the class action suit.
